Qingwen Chinese Dictionary

       iOS iPhone

Qingwen is an extremely focused and streamlined Chinese-English and English-Chinese dictionary designed with the Chinese reader in mind. Lookup is fast and easy, with just one search field which takes anything you throw at it - 汉字, Pinyin or English - and gives you the most relevant results.

Students learning Chinese can use the word lists feature to keep track of dictionary entries for future reference. Each entry also has links to related entries and example sentences to show the word being used in context.

Both Mandarin and Cantonese are fully supported for search, display and audio playback.

Qingwen is powered by data from CC-CEDICT and Tatoeba.org.

NOTE: An active internet connection is required for the audio playback feature.
